Requires the kdeplasma-addons package (sudo apt install kdeplasma-addons) since we use the sticky note widget's code to save to file.

* List is saved to ~/.local/share/plasma_notes/todolist which you can open up in your text editor and edit (changes will sync to the widget).
* Checkbox: Complete note (deletes it).
* Links are autodetected.
* Shift+Enter: New line on current item.
* Enter: Next Item.
* Up/Down: Select Item.
* Ctrl+Up/Down: Reorder Item.
* Number of incomplete items is shown in the panel icon. Last changelog:

v7 - August 3 2017 6 months ago

* Support multiple lists side by side. Each list is seperated by a heading in the file.
* Can drag and drop the lists to reorder them. Can drag items between lists.
* Can add a new list via the context menu. The delete button will prompt before deleting.
* Lines have the excess whitespace at the end of the line stripped.

There are very few Plasma widgets I personally find genuinely useful enough to actually keep on my desktop for long. Most of the time I only have a folderview or two, until now. TodoList, being a todo-list, is obviously useful, and it's so simple and elegant that it has very quickly become a permanent resident on my desktop. :)

Hi,
I love the idea of this plasmoid!
There are a few things that would be awesome to improve its efficiency:
- BUG: Due to the transparency settings of the background, if there are more notes than the size of the widget on the desktop, it hides the first notes and I dont see the vertical scrolling bar..
- Improvement: Would be great to set up the background color and level of transparency
- Would be great to be able to insert note in between some others (to try to keep them organised)
- Also, would be awesome to be able to drag them to reposition the item
But thanks for organising this already!

Uhg, I can add the widget to Kubuntu with KDE 5.5.5 without "errors", but it doesn't save the file. When I type, it doesn't recognize there's text and create a new empty list item below. Also, when I hit enter it resets the textbox.

It works fine on my Chakra VM with KDE 5.6 or KDE 5.7 (forgot to check) so it's nothing Neon specific.

No errors in the damn ~/.xsession-errors so bleeh. Gonna take my a bit to figure this out.

Figured it out. It's not liking me using [b]model.title = newTitle[/b] in the ListView delegate. I need to use [b]todoList.setProperty(index, 'title', newTile)[/b]. I'll try to push an update sometime tonight or tomorrow.

Sorry for the wait. I meant to update this much earlier, but I ran into another bug on my Neon install. This bug was one of those that made no sense.

A second empty placeholder was added at the bottom, but when you went to edit this extra placeholder, it showed a bunch of HTML. I norrowed it down to the ProxySortFilterModel getting out of sync with it's sourceModel, but beyond that... It just made no fucking sense. I restarted plasmashell. No dice. I restarted the PC. No dice. I added a second instance of the widget in the panel, deleted the desktop instance of the widget and readded it... It's fixed. There's no reason for that to have worked and it's driving me crazy.

Anyways, I just uploaded v2 which worked in my Kubuntu 16.04 VM with KDE 5.5.5 and Qt 5.5.1.
